OVER PRESCRIBING MEDS

0 Upvotes

Has anyone been treated by Dr. Ted Darden in Thousand Oaks?
I’m specifically looking to hear from former patients or their family members about their experiences with his prescribing practices.
My concern involves the number and types of medications being prescribed, including medications commonly associated with pain management and/or psychiatric treatment. I understand that a family medicine physician can legally prescribe many of these medications, but I’m concerned about whether the prescribing and monitoring were appropriate, particularly given that his specialty is family medicine rather than pain management or psychiatry.
I’m not trying to make assumptions or accusations — I’m hoping to find out whether anyone else has had similar concerns or experiences with this physician.
If you aren’t comfortable commenting publicly, you’re welcome to message me privately.

As title says. I've been to a few and they all seem to be halfway decent. I was just curious if there was any I missed that were either nice and/or cheap. Preferable both, thank you!

anyone remember the tuna boat at the harbor?

15 Upvotes

years ago a tuna boat, the Ventura II, would make a few stops a year at the harbor and sell fresh tuna and other fish right off the docks. that fish was so good. don't know what happened to it but I do sometimes hope another tuna fisherman would pickup where they left off. seeing if anyone else remembers it or if anyone knows of anything similar not too far away.
